- The answer is yes. Open a Dos window. It can run tsr's that load as .com files
- "Print" is one of them. When you close the dos window, It will warn you
- that a TSR is running and you have to hit Cntl-c to close the window.
- I presume that windows removes the tsr, since it takes back the memory.
-
- Beware if the TSR uses timers (like a screen saver) it can try to pop up
- when windows has the memory. You can lock memory in the .pif
